Policing authorities are on the lookout for the driver of a Perodua Aruz who allegedly assaulted the driver of a Ferrari during a violent altercation on the North-South Expressway near Nilai. This incident, which unfolded around 11 a.m. on a recent Tuesday, has captured public attention after a video of the brawl went viral on social media platforms.
Nilai district police chief Johari Yahya confirmed that a report was filed by one of the drivers involved at 6:40 p.m. The confrontation, which occurred on the outer lanes of the highway, involved two men in their thirties who were stopped in their vehicles. Footage shows the Aruz driver and the Ferrari driver grappling with each other, with two motorcyclists intervening and separating the pair.
